Today on The Ed Morrissey Show (4 pm ET), we have another great lineup for the news of the day! The show will be streamed on Hot Air’s Facebook page and embedded here and on the show page for those who are not on Facebook.

Christian Bale thanked Satan for inspiration to play Dick Cheney in Vice, but how accurate is the film? We’ll ask Charles Denyer, who has consulted extensively with the former VP on Denyer’s new book Our Nation’s No. 2: The Rising Influence of America’s Modern Vice Presidency, which will launch on January 14th. We’ll also talk about the evolution of the office from its humble and almost entirely ceremonial beginnings.
